asterisk users - Jan 2010 - Digium fax - sending fax call file vs manager originate

Hello,

 

I have Asterisk 1.6.1.12 with 

FAX For Asterisk Components:

        Applications: 1.6.1.5_1.1.6

        Digium FAX Driver: 1.6.1.5_1.1.6 (optimized for core2_32)

 

If I use call file with spool

--------------------------------------------

Channel: SIP/IP/DEst No

MaxRetries: 0

RetryTime: 10

WaitTime: 50

Application:SendFAX

Data:/var/spool/asterisk/test.tif

--------------------------------------------

 

Fax is send but if I use manager

 

--------------------------------------------

Action: Originate

Channel: SIP/IP/dest NO

Context: fax-tx

Exten: send

Priority: 1

Callerid: Asterisk Automatic Wardial

 

--------------------------------------------

 

I get 

ERROR[16796]: res_fax.c:696 generic_fax_exec: channel 'SIP/IP-00000015'
is in an unsupported T.38 negotiation state, cannot continue.

 

Here is context

-----------------------------------------

[fax-tx]

exten => send,1,NoOp(**** SENDING FAX ****)

exten => send,n,Wait(6)

;exten => send,n,Set(GLOBAL(FAXCOUNT)=$[ ${GLOBAL(FAXCOUNT)} + 1 ])

exten => send,n,Set(FAXCOUNT=${GLOBAL(FAXCOUNT)})

exten => send,n,Set(FAXFILE=faxout.tif)

; Set FAXOPTs

exten => send,n,NoOp(**** SETTING FAXOPT ****)

;exten => send,n,Set(FAXOPT(ecm)=yes)

;exten => send,n,Set(FAXOPT(headerinfo)=Fax from

received.)

exten => h,n,NoOp(FAXOPT(statusstr) : ${FAXOPT(statusstr)})

exten => h,n,NoOp(FAXOPT(error) : ${FAXOPT(error)})

Well, one obvious solution is to just use call file. Problem solved.

Try changing your call manager setup to use a Local channel instead,
and set up a context that does the dial within that context. That
should give you better introspection into where things are failing /
what you're doing wrong.
